My first 110.

dread having anything to do with brass.
but the 2019 ebony 110 was in my books
at least - a definate collectable must have!.
so i made an exception for this landmark
production switch in the wooden scales.
thus imo the year markings seals the deal.
it got me to thinking that since all this
new ebony is really left over scrap material
from a guitar manufacturer, then it could
well be production waste raw material
which makes it less expensive for buck
to work with than the wood laminate which
was replaced? so that might have enabled consumers to enjoy the benefit of some cost savings as well? just my 2 cents.

I was glad to see the switch to solid ebony and the price stay the same. I can't think of anything even close to the value of the 110. USA made, crazy good warranty, excellent fit and finish on the examples I have. All for $45 or less for the standard model. I think I paid like $34.99 during the father's day sale.

Kind of excited to see what all cool woods come out of relationship with Taylor. An improved product at no increase in price is a win in my book.

yeah, no matter what direction buck decides
in future, the 110 folder has already secured
its place in american folding knife history.
as for the present, the reintroduction of
ebony keeps things to original specs i
suppose.wouldn't be surprised to see
scales being lazer etching in the works...
